Is The Little Couple over? Deadline reports the TLC series’ production company, LMNO, is now locked in litigation with parent network Discovery.
The reality series follows the family of Bill Klein and Jennifer Arnold, a couple who both have skeletal dysplasia. The show began in 2009 and has already aired eight seasons.
Yesterday, LMNO filed a suit against Discovery for breach of contract and copyright infringement, “accusing the giant media company of conspiring with a “criminal extortionist” to squeeze LMNO out of six of its shows, including TLC hit The Little Couple.”
According to the production company, Discovery allegedly took advantage of LMNO’s troubled financial situation in order to take control of shows like The Little Couple. As of now, Discovery has sent LMNO termination notices for several shows, including The Little Couple, 7 Little Johnstons, Killer Confessions, Hollywood & Crime, The Coroner: I Speak for the Dead, and Unusual Suspects.
Whether or not this means The Little Couple is cancelled remains to be decided.

Please bring show back! My 90 year old mother enjoys following this family
I miss the show BRING IT BACK!
Really hoping The Little Couple returns. Bill and Jen are amazing parents and their children adorable. I miss the show and especially watching the children grow. I absolutely love this family. Bill and Jen have been so generous by sharing their lives with us. Wishing them love, good health and happiness always and hoping to see them back on TV soon.
Jen and Bill have shared so much of their lives that people have come to really care about them. We saw their trails and joys, and enjoyed watching their kids thrive and mature. We miss them. We miss them all.
Great show. Why would you cancel it?
Good family shows are few and far between!!!
Great show! Bring it back. Good family shows are few and far between!!!
I am saddened to learn that the delightful show The little Couple has been cancelled. Big disappointment for me and my family.
I was so surprised to see this show canceled! This was one the most wholesome families I have ever seen in a show. To cancel the show left everyone shocked. This family should be allowed to continue their show! I hope with all my heart you will bring their show back. Have a heart!
Love this show if it is gone possibly never watch the channel again
We will be very disappointed if they cancel this show. We so looked forward to watching it each week.
great family,my family loves to watch.
I love the little couple I have never missed a episode from their move to Houston to adopting their children they are a inspiration to all
Please bring back The Little Couple it is an amazing show , miss so much
An inspiring family. It deserves to be aired, watching them is heartwarming, especially with the dearth of wholesome TV. Enough of mindless reality shows that insult our intelligence.
Please, please bring The Little Couple back! Our family just loves this show and it is one of the few family friendly shows left.
